Quite the contrast with his aid-blocking moves for natural disasters in Louisiana, New York and Puerto Rico.

In other words, exactly what you'd expect...

they wear their maga hats to the super market to get groceries with their snap cards.
They cuss Obama as they use their obamacare for healthcare.
They all take the checks for the child tax credits while flying their fuck Biden flags on the front porch.
And they'll continue to do all of this because they are brainwashed fools.

They have no problem with themselves using them. It's some "other" unworthy people that's taking the assistance from them.

Their way of thinking is, "Don't you be taking that government money. I want some to be there in case I need some of it." They talk a good game about wanting government to stay out of their lives.

The chickens have come home to roost and I am sympathetic to those who heeded the warnings but not to those who have done nothing to help get us off fossil fuels.
